A Surprise for Papa and More Adventures with Grandma

Papa had to work the week we were home, but that didn't keep us apart. Each day he went to work, we made plans to surprise him with something special. It was when we took him lunch on Wednesday that our plan for Thursday came together. I noticed that he had a candy jar on his desk filled with candy he doesn't even like. I noted the need to replace it immediately. After lunch, Grandma took a great picture of Papa, Caleb and I that would also be included in Thursday's surprise. That afternoon, we had the picture printed. Grandma found a frame, and Caleb colored a grocery bag which we turned into wrapping paper. The next morning, Grandma and Caleb went and picked out candy, of the chocolate variety, for Papa's new candy dish. We then surprised Papa with a candy dish filled with candy he loves and a picture for his desk wrapped in one-of-a-kind paper. He was not expecting either. Our mission was accomplished. Papa went back to work. Caleb, Grandma and I went and explored the library. The kids' section was in the center of the library surrounded by bookcases and complete with rocking chairs just Caleb's size. After trying out all the rockers and reading a couple of books, we headed home for dinner. We were then off to the park, just blocks from Grandma's house, to play firemen! Just another awesome day with Grandma and Papa!

Lunch with Papa on Wednesday
Surprise!
Let me give you a hand Papa
We better sample these candy bars
A bite for you, a bite for me
Let's read this one Mom
So many choices
On their way to the park
